How do I make something have a nice glow?

I was trying to figure out how to make some text I have glow, but can't. I went to the part that says glow intensity, and I put it to 90% and it did nothing. I made the text 10% Luminous also...what am I doing wrong?

You have to activate glow on the image processing panel.

You can also do it in a post processing application like Digital Fusion, Aura, or After Effects. I have found its best to do it there, there is no hit to your render times and its easier to tweak to get just the effect you are looking for. Personally I use Digital Fusion's Soft Glow for damn near everything :)

I've got After Effects, but I wanted to see if there was a way to do it in Lightwave itself. reason being, what if my object has a glow and I want that glow show on other objects in the scene?
